‘Researchers consider him the “first Christian north of the Alps,” ‘

I hate to nitpick an interesting story, but wouldn’t it be more accurate to claim this as the “remains of one of the *earliest* Christians north of the alps”? It seems quite a big (and pretty baseless) leap to assert this to be the “first Christian” in Germania.

He’s the first *known* one. So, no, not a leap.
